Frustration due to being unrecognised ? Rx

Are you frustrated for being un-recognized for excellent work done ? The immediate cause : examiner, readers, boss, customer, spouse, children ? Having a a deep heartburn ?

Rx

Wisdom and understanding things in as broad as dimension is the lasting way to overcome this type of frustration. In all spiritual traditions, adepts are asked to contemplate on death to understand life better. Why death ? Because Death is the Termini and the singularity of Life as we know in this episode. Remember the four lines below when you remain frustrated due to being un-recognized

go-ras gali gali phire / Milk of Cow needs to be taken door to door

sura baithi bikai / Booze gets sold anywhere

satee-ko na mile dhoti / A chaste woman may not have enough clothes to cover

herself

kasbin pehne khasa / A whore wears the very best.

(This verse is taken from poet and devotee Tulsidas’ Sriramcharitmanas – an Hindi trans-creation of Valmiki’s epic The Ramayana)

If you are doing an important work, it is possible that the grand-children of the current readers may regret as why you were not their contemporary in flesh and blood.

If your work is really important, universal and profound, you may need to wait couple of generations to be taken note.
